Lightning Tools for SharePoint is a collection of integration apps for SharePoint. Their Conductor add-in is an easy way to access SharePoint lists and libraries across sites so you can find information faster—and sort and filter data right on screen when you don't have access to SharePoint Designer. Explore everything Conductor has to offer in this course with instructor Tiffany Songvilay. Learn about creating rollups to view data across multiple sites, creating custom filters for views, adding conditional formatting, and building calculated columns. Tiffany also shows how to use the Search Rollup Engine Provider to view a single content type across all site collections and to increase the performance of the web part on a page.
